A demonstrator of Black Lives Matter was shot dead outside a bar in Omaha, Nebraska after a Saturday night night.

Images circulating on social media show that 22-year-old James Scurlock – who is black – is being shot by a man – who is white – outside the Hive Bar.

In the video, a man in a gray shirt appears to be talking to the victim, who is wearing a dark shirt and jeans.

The person recording the video is called to have a gun and says “it’s not worth it.”

Seconds later, two loud gunshots are heard and the videographer quickly dives for cover. Scurlock was shot twice in the neck.

The incident took place outside The Hive Bar on Saturday before 11 p.m. The murder took place after the protests ended

Police said they responded to the scene at around 11:01 after officers reported firing shots at 12th and Harney Street.

“On arrival of the agents on the 1207 Harney Street scene [the location of The Hive]”They found a man who suffered a gunshot wound,” Omaha police said in a statement. “The male was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center, where he succumbed to his injury.”

“The Omaha police are not currently looking for suspects,” OPD added. “Investigators are reviewing all evidence gathered, video, witness hearings, and consultations with the Douglas County Attorney’s Office.”

Police initially said on Saturday evening that the suspect was free, but shortly afterwards Tjhey tweeted that the shooter was in custody.

On Sunday afternoon, police chief Todd Schmaderer said the gunman was still being held, but that any booking or “decision about charging that front will come from the prosecutor.”

Schmaderer added, “And he tells me this will be accompanied by a press conference.”

OPD said there were no police officers involved in the shooting.

Witnesses claim that the shooter “taunted” protesters and was called to the sidewalk as “a **** lover.” The video isn’t clear what happened before the shots were fired, but witnesses claim that Scurlock – who was with his brother – jumped onto the shooter’s back to stop him from using his weapon.

The alleged shooter had previously posted on Facebook: ‘Just when you think what else 2020 can bring me?

“Then you have to go for 48 hours in a military-style fire watch.”

“James was passionate about Justice, but today his fight ended when he was shot and downtown Omaha killed while protesting for the same Justice he deserves,” said a GoFundMe page

“James was passionate about Justice, but today his fight ended when he was shot and downtown Omaha killed while protesting for the same Justice he deserves,” the page’s creator writes.

“May you rest in peace, James.”

The Omaha World-Herald said Scurlock’s family was not ready to talk, but would talk soon.

On Sunday afternoon, Omaha Mayor Jean Stothert said the protest was peaceful, but after the demonstrations, groups of companies began to destroy.

According to witnesses, Scurlock was killed outside a company that had been damaged earlier in the night.

Omaha announced a curfew from 8 p.m. for 72 hours. The National Guard will cooperate with the OPD.
